You pretty much have to disclose anything requested by the filing or trustee. Period. And common sense would say you want to keep on as good and co-operative terms as possible....they are actually working to resolve YOUR problems under the law as YOU requested by filing. Understand, your last filing is a matter of public court record and is available anyway...don't be confused by the time limits on what a credit agency reports. A prior filing of this age is not really important to the admin however. The court is concerned with people who seem to abuse the process, filing every few years and making it part of their "financial plan".

How do I convert chapter 13 bankruptcy to chapter 7 myself What should be included in the motion to convert letter?

The debtor (or the debtor's attorney) can do this with a simple filing - usually an "Ex Parte Motion to Convert Chapter 13 to a Chapter 7." Providing the debtor's bankruptcy has not previously been converted already, the debtor/debtor attorney can do this without the permission or advance permission of either the bankruptcy judge or the Chapter 13 trustee that is managing the bankruptcy up until that point (hence, the "Ex Parte" part of the document). There are notice requirements - check with your local bankruptcy district to see who this needs to be mailed out to. Also, there is usually a small fee involved (it usually involves the debtor paying the difference in cost between a Chapter 13 and a Chapter 7 filing, but may be different - again, check with your local bankruptcy court). The debtor will be required to go through another 341 creditor's meeting with the new Chapter 7 trustee.

Can you file a chapter 11?

Yes, provided you meet the qualifications. Bankruptcy is a federal court process. It is designed to help consumers and businesses eliminate debt or repay debts under the protection of the bankruptcy court. Chapter 11 bankruptcy is a type of reorganization bankruptcy, like Chapter 13. Chapter 11 is available to individuals, corporations, and partnerships. It has no limits on the amount of debt, again, like Chapter 13. Chapter 11 is the typical bankruptcy choice for large businesses seeking to restructure their debt and become profitable again. Chapter 11 is the most flexible of all the bankruptcy chapters, which makes it generally more expensive to the debtor. The rate of successful reorganizations is very low.


What protection does Chapter 11 Bankruptcy offer?

Chapter 11 is the bankruptcy code issued to a business who files for bankruptcy. This type of bankruptcy protects a business and will allow it to get running again. If a business fails and applies for chapter 7, they must sell everything and give the proceeds to creditors. A person on chapter 11 does not have to do this.

Can you declare bankruptcy now that your first bankruptcy is discharged?
